Training Classes:

Puppy Socialization 101
Age: 8 - 16 weeks old
6 week session

This course will teach the puppy to be calm in a variety of future situations and to socialize with other dogs and people in a safe environment.  This course will also provide the foundation for beginning obedience exercises and to teach humane and effective communication techniques with the canine companion.  The evidence has shown that a puppy completing a socialization course at their critical period (7-16 weeks) significantly cuts down on possible future behavior problems.  At the end of each class your puppy will get the opportunity to socialize with other puppies and humans to develop acceptable behaviors.

The dogs will be taught basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, down, stand for exam, come when called and walking on a leash.  These classes will teach owners to have good control over their companions in a variety of situations and also address nuisance hehaviors and how to best deal with these prolems.
